As is the case with most issues, if I think I need to know something I

No, ignorance would be when someone doesn't know something they need
to know.

Just for the edification of the floriduh dumbass - ignorance is not

Got it...  so, you're ignorant because you don't know how to pilot a

Nope :-) The term "pilot"has some what tha same meaning 0n a boat as
on an airplane. The the guy driving or controlling the thing. :- ))

Indeed, knowing how to pilot a three masted sailing ship into port
might simply be finding someone who knows how to do it for you. Of
course, that, and the tugboat are stretching the common understanding
of the term "know how."

I think I've made my point, so I'll pass on further comment on this
subject.
